Think about the person you are today: your personality, your strengths and weaknesses, your attitudes, etc. In what ways has your birth order position shaped you? In what ways have your relationships with your siblings helped make you the person you are today? To what extent does the research about birth order that you read about last night reflect your experience? Be specific and make connections.
I think the fact that I am the oldest in my family has given more characteristics of a leader. Because both of my siblings are younger than me I have always learned to take control of situations. In addition, it is very stereotypical that the first born is the child most driven and most likely to be a book worm. I see myself as being both of those things. My sister, two years younger, cares about school, but she doesn't study nearly as much as I do and my brother, four years younger, only does school work when he's forced to. I learned through my reading that the oldest is competent and responsible and always strives to achieve the very best and I pride myself in all of those qualities.
